Wednesday 20th November

Today we started with a technical task, we had to create a paper airplane; but we had to make it how we would create any piece of work. This turned out to be referencing, meaning we had to reference the webpages we got our ideas and help from for the plane.

I didn't do this because I created mine from my head. Anyone's who weren't referenced were thrown in the bin. Only 6 of us made the cut (including John, Me and Lewis); Shane came third, John came second and as for me, I came first. My simple yet evenly balanced, long gliding plan, WON!!! I managed to win some rolo’s.

The rest of the day I was working on my animation. Because I have lots of ActionScript and lots of layers it all got rather confusing so I needed Lewis to help me with some of the coding and where to put what. When he helped I was soon sorted out and knew what I was doing. When it came to doing different coding for different parts, I had to get him to help me again.


In the final part of the day we peer reviewed the animations of the people who finished. Lewis animation came about 5 and Dan won with flying colours, 87 points. I should have it all done by tomorrow, Friday at the latest because I have only bits and bobs to do but using flash can be rather frustrating.
